Abstract
Abstract BACKGROUND Vitis vinifera L. ‘Cabernet Gernischt’ grapes from the Yantai wine region of China usually form dense clusters and contain low phenolic content. We applied five concentrations (ranged from 5 to 25 mg L −1 ) of gibberellic acid (GA 3 ) to ‘Cabernet Gernischt’ before anthesis to decrease cluster compactness in two consecutive vintages. Yield indices, grape maturity, and wine phenolic compounds were determined. RESULTS GA 3 application significantly reduced cluster compactness, bunch weight, and yield per vine, but it did not significantly improve fruit ripening. The levels of total phenolics, total tannins, and total anthocyanins in wine were enhanced by GA 3 application, with 10 and 15 mg L −1 GA 3 treatments consistently producing a significant increase in the concentrations of mavidin, cyanidin, and their derivatives. Specifically, trans ‐resveratrol was consistently significantly increased by 15 mg L −1 GA 3 application. Principal component analysis of phenolic compounds demonstrated the differences among wines produced from GA 3 treatment groups and the control. CONCLUSION Overall, wine phenolic profiles could be significantly modified by application of low concentrations of GA 3 before anthesis. Application of high levels of GA 3 is not recommended due to significant yield decrease. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.
